RAG System

Definitions

1. A complete retrieval-augmented generation system that combines search or retrieval with generation so answers can be grounded in external knowledge. RAG systems are common in enterprise assistants, documentation tools, and question-answering products.

   In plain English: A system that retrieves information and then uses it to generate grounded answers.

   Example: "The team chose a RAG system because policy answers needed to be based on current internal documents rather than only on model memory."
